Wow this is a new comment

I wondered about Kazuki and Ryuhei Kitamura. This woulda Ben cool too. Also agree with your rankings if GxM and G2K swapped. GxMG vs GMK is tough though. I’ll add these videos are very well done and detailed. It’s enjoyable to watch or listen to in the background for information (I am often multitasking and my Japanese is very rusty so I always have to pause if I’m on a ladder and a Japanese quote comes on). I wish Hedorah got more screen time in GFW. I got to meet Banno in 2004 at GFest where they premiered GxMxMG:Tokyo SOS in the US and he was great and I’m sure would’ve been happy if Hedorah got more than 10 seconds on screen again. Wasn’t a fan of GFW but as you said it’s better on rewatch. GxM also isn’t bad besides that leap scene but I prefer the Heisei atmosphere. Was good to see angilas again though. I’ve been a fan since the Showa era (as in pre-89..). I remember my surprise learning Godzilla didn’t end with 1985 when I first got the web in 93, then found I’d missed one with DAM. Such an enjoyable watch with the AIP bootleg, and those horrid Heisei dubs for GvKG and GvM92 (the bio dub wasn’t bad). Been sub ever since with GxvMG93 but can enjoy a good dub like G2K

The casting itself was one giant homage. A majority of the actors, young and old, from different eras intermingling onscreen. Some even from stand-alone, non-Godzilla Toho films.

Don't show Final Wars to people if you want them to take Godzilla seriously. Do show Final Wars to Godzilla fans who know that Final Wars isn't meant to be taken seriously.

@@CStone-xn4oy that's the point they don't have to take godzilla seriously he lost his seriousness years ago now he is more known to be over the top and strong all the time a powerhouse thats how he should bow be introduced and overpowered monster

That being said this was one of if not the meanest Godzilla ever By looks and personality. The only thing that bugs me is the music that plays at the end it's so anticlimactic and out of place

@C. Stone When has Godzilla EVER been taken seriously? Final Wars is probably one of the few Godzilla films genuinely worth watching because at least it seemed Toho fully committed to the non-fuck attitude they have had towards this series since the beginning of the Showja era.

Don't see what's wrong with it i liked it didn't know it had hate

He would somehow make it even more confusing than that

@@BigActionBill Totally, and it would probably break the 4th wall and make us disconnect our internet to see the real ending

Senator Ghidorah: Checked the internet lately? Mechagodzilla: The memes! But no joke, I kinda want to see a Kojima Gojira. A Kojira?

@@Inignot12 ... I think I'd actually prefer that

@@BigActionBill by any chance are you going to do a "History of" for the Monsterverse?

I cheered when it happened

Literally 🤣🤣

Oh snap I just realized your Eva 01 lol

@@joeysullivanTM Lol it’s cool. Nice to see a fellow Eva fan

@@Eva01-jy2qu7pu9r yes also thanks for subscribing!

Agreed. Final Wars gets way too much hate. A Godzilla movie where Godzilla actually kicks butt on a rampage.

"...I recommend for people who are just getting into the character?." Wouldn't that be more accurate to say, "...for video gamers, BOYS, & MEN in the 18-40 age group?" LOL That's the "people" you really mean. Or maybe, "...people who are WWE (WWF wresting) fans." For PEOPLE who are older or female, this would be a terrible movie to use to INTRODUCE the "character"! It's the stereotype of a Godzilla film. Non-stop fighting is fan service, not something that will engage most newbies. Godzilla 1985 is probably the best of the older Godzilla films to use to introduce the CHARACTER (not just show off special effects). For modern audiences, one of the new American Godzilla films (2014 or G v. Kong) would be better for special effects AND for character, b/c Big G actually HAS a character in those films. He even has a character in Shin Godzilla. I noticed that he takes a lot of abuse in his "second land form but doesn't fight back. It's only in his final form that he goes on a rampage. He had only been destructive b/c he was so big (& outright clumsy in his first form), not b/c he was malevolent. But WE made him malevolent by deliberately attacking him first instead of finding some other way of controlling him or deterring his coming on to land. Plus you have the whole, "The Japanese government is incompetent in a crisis," message that was the point of Shin Godzilla as political commentary after the triple disasters of the earthquake, tsunami, & Fukushima nuclear disaster.

@@DonnaBrooks nah ur recommendation not reliable if u say 85 is a nice start now yes I agree with shin godzilla but ur wrong final wars what got me into godzilla I was a newbie when I was like 5 and yes till this day final wars still my favorite and final wars perfect for the general audiences and newbies I shown some family members final wars who doesn't even watch godzilla they loved it final wars is perfect

@@DonnaBrooks my fiance doesn't even wat j godzilla but I told her all about it and I let her pick which godzilla interest her the most so she picked final wars and she loved it now she just as much as a geek as I am

Final Wars is my favorite Godzilla movie, and it isn't even close. I grew up watching the Showa films on TV and Final Wars was everything that made me love Godzilla as a kid only better. And I absolutely love how over the top it is.

It's the last old goji movie. Every other Godzilla after this has been different

@@geethau4676 yea that was the suitmation godzilla

Hahaha!!! 🤣

Amen

Equal rights means equal fights!

Personally I enjoy the change. That producer was right Godzilla would return but in a new form for a new generation. I believe he has definitely gained fans since his second revival in Hollywood.

@@justnoah2073 It's true Godzilla's popularity has certainly been bigger than ever before since 2014, which is nice. While I miss the practical effects & rubber suits, I understand being all CG. All I wish is most of these recent G films had presented their storylines more engaging. Most of these characters have been just meh, Brian Cranston the only exception (I'm not just referring to the Monsterverse films, also the Reiwa films). I see potential for good movies in each of these, just a not as fulfilling execution compared to more previous G films (though not all). But that's just my opinion, not fact.

@@DinobotKiryu Yes the Shows era is known for its rich and compelling characters adored the worldwide.

Final wars is still my favorite Godzilla movie of all time. And one of my favorite Godzilla designs, and this was the end of my personally favorite era (millennium) since I was born in 2003 I was raised on this era, until I went back and watched the older ones while hyping up for 2014. I like the new take too, but something about the practical effects and that style was just so perfect for me. Although I’d love to see a mix, using cgi, practical effects and old and new feels

I don't know. If you look into Shin Godzilla then that has a lot of reminiscence to the Godzilla 54 version. With a deep message and terror feeling. Yes it wasn't a suit anymore but it was true to the roots of the original

Felt the same way when he did King Kong vs Godzilla.

Me too GFW💎

Yeah, that part hit me a bit harder than I was expecting

Very nice of you to say, I hope I can keep improving

@@BigActionBill me too.

This is my least favorite, I think Godzilla 2000 is best in millemium.

@@derpyplayground I think Millennium is the weakest out of the Godzilla eras.

More like an updated Destroy All Monsters

@@AlexMartinez-gv7hy But a worse update.

@@derpyplayground I can see why but personally I love just how fun the film is. As long as you don't fis on people your good

Don Fry is a legend in this movie which is funny because he put basically no effort into it. Its funny when you watched the subtitled version because everyone is speaking Japanese and then suddenly Don Fry says something in English and people look at him like "wait, what did he just say?"

If I would of said that, I would of gotten banned

turning him from a badass answering with a punch, to a weirdo getting off on it. a small difference but a real moment killer.

@@bryanbender1516 It's would HAVE, not would of. "Would of" doesn't even make any sense. Words have meanings. Quit watching YT & learn to write English. (P.S. Since you are likely to argue, b/c you only sound out words & write down what you hear, instead of understanding the language, you should've

make a star (*) instead if i when u said b*tch

Baddas Godzilla

It frustrates me that we still haven't gotten an S.H. Monsterarts figure of it yet. When the line launched back in 2012, Final Wars was the most recent G-film back then. I have waited for this variation of Godzilla to be adapted and I still am. Damn...

@@cadethumann8605 it's gonna be made along with zilla and mv mechagodzilla i believe.

@@cadethumann8605 they actually revealed SHMA Godzilla 2004 a few months ago. The release date is still to be announced.

@@christiandenault7606 AWESOME.

Thank you!! Yeah it'll probably be a while before I touch on the modern stuff in the history format. I do want to go back and work on the showa era re-dos for a while and work on some non-Godzilla stuff. I appreciate the kind words and hopefully you enjoy going forward as well!

lmao Damn please find the source for that if it's real

HAHAHAHHAHA

Gojira japan cut is better than Raymon Burr cut version

haha the old showa era videos are going to start coming down as I redo them

@@BigActionBill I would love to see a playlist of the movies in chronological order by the film's release date.

@@BigActionBill can't wait for Mothra Vs Godzilla, my favorite Showa Godzilla movie!

@@BigActionBill is that why I haven't seen any from the 70s? Can't wait until you redo them.

From this movie specifically the behind the scenes stuff comes with the Blu-ray of the movie

Like the music meme but it not lame when you got family

He's a secret spy from Toho 😏😏

@@BigActionBill I checked this movie out from the library back around 2006 on DVD and, since I love the commentary on the creative decisions made in movies, I always watch the movie first, then watch it again to hear the Director's and/or actor's commentary. But I honestly forget everything he said!

I mean it is Godzilla. He is either the silliest and dumbest thing imaginable or the darkest and most serious thing imaginable.

Yes, and it’s a GREAT track.

Sorry for the cursing lol!

long journey

Best of luck, hope to see your movie in the future

That’s really nice to say, I hope you continue to enjoy.

Your welcome. I will continue.

it's been quite the trek

Happy you're enjoying them, I will work hard to keep improving

Which KOTM?

Were your friends regular people who weren't fans or fans themselves?. Cause if they weren't fans and STILL enjoyed this then that says alot about the entertainment value of final wars

@@Kaiju-bm4ts theyr'e non-fans.

@@luralord9202 that's shocking, was it English dub or English sub? I try to introduce non fans to godzilla and I have no choice but to show them the monsterverse films first and only cause people are too spoiled by cgi to give suitmation a shot.

@@Kaiju-bm4ts It was subbed. They found it hillarious with Gordon speaking his cool english while everyone else speaks japanese. And oh, I should mention that my friends like anime.

@@luralord9202 idk if liking anime has anything to do with it since some of the people I know like anime and I still find it difficult to get them into kaiju stuff unless it's the monsterverse or kaiju anime. Final wars basically acts like a live action anime so it's still shocking they liked it at all. If they liked final wars they'll likely love the kiryu saga and SSSS gridman/dynazenon
